    I have come to the conclusion that the Trophy is just not for me :scream:

    Its absolutely cracking on the motorway and on big A roads, and if I had a big daily commute or plans to tour I'd definitely be keeping it, but its a bit too heavy (for me) on my usual B road sunny afternoon outings and has far too smooth a power delivery for me to enjoy between corners, its like nothing happens, no kick up the pants but suddenly I'm doing 80 o_O and the next bend is far too close for comfort.
    So in the paper it goes. Sorry, showing my age there, on t'internet it goes.

    Tis a shame and if no one buys it I won't be that disappointed apart from losing precious space in my garage, and putting up with the 'why have you got two bikes?' earache from my SO.

    I'd just like to repeat my thanks to all that have offered suggestions and fixes for my various teething issues and for a few larfs too, most entertaining.

    Cheers fellas
